Hi.<br />
<br />
I'm trying to recreate table definition from any DBMS.<br />
Does anybody know how to dynamically detect if column definition has to contain any parameters ?<br />
<br />
example:<br />
<br />
column of type VARCHAR2 in Oracle DBMS must have parameter &quot;max.length&quot;, but column of type INT in MS SQL Server is parameterless..<br />
<br />
I've tried to use DatabaseMetaData.getTypeIn<wbr />fo. It returns CREATE_PARAMS info about data type, but it seems it's not working as I think it would. <br />
I do not have detailed description of MetaData functions except API, but there it isn't described in detail.<br />
<br />
Regards.

Hi.

Does anybody know how to dynamically detect if column definition has to contain any parameters ?

I've tried to use DatabaseMetaData.getTypeInfo. It returns CREATE_PARAMS info about data type, but it seems it's not working as I think it would.

JDBC: Metadata about column

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
